Quite surprising results: Gerrard: 297 games Macmanaman: 294 games Heskey: 185 games Kuyt: 179 games Fowler: 94 games Owen: 93 games Suarez: 91 games Torres: 84 games I'm surprised that Fowler only comes in at No4. And if Suarez hadn't such an iffy season last year he'd have beaten Torres easily. full article here: http://www.talksport.co.uk/magazine/feat...eague-er-193449

I almost fell of my toadstoll when I saw how many heskey got. Considering he went through a spell of about 35-40 games where he only scored once, he must have one serious purple patch to have reached 50.

Do you not remember that one season where he was lethal in front of goal? He looked like he was going to score every time he played - and usually did. I think he scored 23 goals that season but Owen pipped him to top scorer in the end by coming back and getting 24 in the end. I think Fowler got 17 that season and Litmanen around 8 or 9. (those totals are all from memory, so they may be off!) What a strike force we had in those four players - for that one season at least.

Jari was a great player. He was a magician with the ball at his feet. Unfortunately for us - as was the case with others, the likes of Morientes - we got him a few years too late. He was past his best, although we got to see a few glimpses of genius. I definitely agree though, that he wasn't used anywhere near as much as he should have been by Houllier. In his defence though, he had some great options. I always felt though, that Jari offered something different. He had that creative spark.

Yeah another good example there. Then there was the one that got away in Nicolas Anelka - up there with selling Robbie Fowler, as Houllier's biggest errors of judgement, in my opinion.

You kidding there bar we got £14 m for fowller when his career was over. He more or less never played again. Consistently. After that injury with the Everton goalkeeper and te drink he was not half the player and he was generally trouble too off the field. But in his day one of our best ever strikers for us yiou coud argue the best what a pity his career was over at age 26
